Hours after the National Assembly Health Committee launched an inquiry into organ trafficking allegations at Mediheal Hospital, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has also begun investigating the claims.
The Transnational Organised Crime Unit (TOCU) is leading the probe into human organ trafficking at the hospital's Fertility and Transplant Centre in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County.
The DCI posted an update on its X account, urging anyone with information to record their statements at DCI Headquarters. "We are committed to a thorough investigation to ensure justice for all parties involved," the DCI said. "Anyone with relevant information is urged to come forward and provide their statements to aid the investigation," the DCI added.
The Health Committee has been given 80 days to determine whether professional ethics were followed.
